Contextual Overview

15 Drinke of the water of thyne owne well, and of the riuers that runne out of thyne owne spring. 16 Let thy welles flowe out abrode, that there may be riuers of waters in the streates: 17 But let them be onlye thyne owne, and not straungers with thee. 18 Let thy well be blessed, and be glad with the wyfe of thy youth. 19 Let her be as the louyng Hinde and pleasaunt Roe: let her breastes alway satisfie thee, and holde thee euer content with her loue. 20 Why wylt thou my sonne haue pleasure in a straunge woman, and embrace the bosome of a straunger? 21 For euery mans wayes are open in the sight of the Lord, and he pondereth all their goynges. 22 The wickednes of the vngodly shall catche him selfe, and with the snares of his owne sinne shall he be trapped. 23 He shall dye without amendement, and for his great foolishnes he shall go astray.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad,.... Or "shall abound", as the Targum; that is, streams of water from fountains; which Aben Ezra interprets of a multitude of children, namely, that are lawfully begotten: the "fountains" are the man and his wife in lawful marriage; the streams are their offspring lawfully procreated by them; which may be said to be "dispersed abroad", when being grown up they are disposed of in marriage in other families, and so become fountains to others, and public blessings;

[and] rivers of waters in the streets; meaning a numerous posterity as before; and such as a man is not ashamed publicly to own, whereas he is ashamed of such as are unlawfully begotten; but these are to his honour in the streets, and for public good; and particularly to those to whom they are given in marriage; see Isaiah 48:1. Jarchi interprets this of multiplying disciples, and of teaching them the law publicly, and of getting a name thereby; but it might be interpreted much better of spreading the doctrines of the Gospel, and of the public ministry and profession of that, for the good of others.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Wedded love streams forth in blessing on all around, on children and on neighbors and ill the streets, precisely because the wife’s true love is given to the husband only.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 5:16. Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad — Let thy children lawfully begotten be numerous.
